Installation of the plugin package is also necessary.

Usage

Get metadata about the active window (title, id, bounds, owner, etc).

import { getActiveWin } from "@todesktop/client-active-win";

(async () => {
  console.log(await getActiveWin(options));
  /*
	{
		bounds: {
			x: 720,
			y: 330,
			height: 600,
			width: 800
		},
		id: 7184,
		memoryUsage: 1248,

			path: '/Applications/Google Chrome.app'
		},
		platform: "macos",
		title: 'Google',
	}
	*/
})();
